Supported Menu Attributes

To provide a great in-app experience for your customers, Bopple requires the use of certain menu attributes of Kounta. The supported menu setup makes use of Kounta's more modern/recent configurations, so it should also help to provide a better experience in your POS.

Suggested Hot Drink Menu Setup

Note that there are separate Milk option sets for different products, depending on whether milk is mandatory (eg. FW) or optional (eg. LB). Be sure to include Full Cream in your Milk option sets for customer clarity. Avoid linking the Milk option sets to products that never need milk, like Espresso.

Note that there is a button for each quantity. App users cannot tap 'Sugar' multiple times to add several. Buttons are needed for each quantity.
